Depends what kind of fan you want to be. I myself am an android fan. My wife has the newest iPhone and it doesnt compare to my Galaxy S. Hopefully the Bionic comes out soon(Verizon). If I Could get the Atrix, I would.

Easier question to answer would be current iPhone or new iPhone in X months. In that case, my answer would be "Do you need an iPhone?" If yes, get it now. If no, wait. Same for whether you want a current-gen Android phone (Atrix) or a next-gen phone that is released in X months.

Atrix versus iPhone 5 (or 4S, whatever it may be) is more of a preference thing. Do you want an Android phone or an iOS phone? The answer to that question will likely match the answer to your own question.

In a perfect world, I would have the disposable income for one of each. Both have merits, both have downsides. As that isn't the case, I get by just fine with my dumbphone on StraightTalk phone service for $30 and change / month.

I needed to update the contract, so I ended up using that $100 coupon towards the HTC Inspire 4G. I went into the store to compare the atrix, inspire, and infuse. I realize the hardware of the atrix and infuse blow the inspire out of the water...but for what i use a phone for (browsing, point and shoot, media player, basic apps, maps, phone calls, and texting), the inspire felt better. It's heavier and bigger, but the aluminum body and huge camera just felt very good.The Motorola software on the phone felt bloated and slow and i was very underwhelmed.

I walked into the store expecting to love the atrix based on the physical and hardware specs. The infuse didn't feel worth the extra 100...that and it felt too light...if that's possible.

So, long story short, i was not impressed with the atrix, and think the iphone 4 would be a better choice, let alone the iphone 5 if you can wait.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
